Objective To investigate the change of inflammatory factor and blood coagulation in patients with laparo?scopic gastric cancer radical surgery. Methods Data of seventy-seven stomach cancer patients hospitalized in our hospital and received the surgical treatment from June 2012 to June 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. Thirty-eight of these pa?tients underwent laparoscopic treatment (laparoscopic group) and 39 cases received laparotomy treatment (laparotomy group). The values of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were analyzed at the time points of preop?eration and 6 h, 24 h after the surgery in two groups. The levels of activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), international standardization ration (INR), fibrinogen (FIB) and D dimer (D-D) were also analyzed at the same time points in two groups. The postoperative thrombosis and tumor recurrence rate were also analyzed in two groups of pa?tients. Results There were no significant differences in the gender, age, the size of tumor, differentiation degree and TNM staging between two groups of patients. The serum levels of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-αwere significantly increased after surgery in two groups (P < 0.01), and which were significantly higher in laparotomy group than those of laparoscopic group (P<0.01). The levels of APTT, PT and INR were significantly lower after surgery in two groups of patients, and which were signifi?cantly lower in laparoscopic group than those of laparotomy group (P<0.05). The levels of FIB and D-D were significantly increased after operation in two groups of patients (P<0.05), which were significantly higher in laparoscopic group than those of laparotomy group (P<0.05). The postoperative recurrence of cancer was less in laparoscopic group than that of lapa?rotomy group. But, the postoperative thrombosis was more in laparoscopic group than that of laparotomy group. Conclusion There was less release of inflammatory mediators and less effect on the body’s immune function in patients with laparoscopic gastric cancer radical surgery. But, the surgery has a large influence in blood coagulation, we should pay attention to it in the clinical treatment.

LSAB immunohistochemistry and digoxin-labeled in situ hybridization methods were used to detect the expression of EGFR and TGF-a and the transcription of EGFR-mRNA in human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tissues. The expression rate of EGFR and TGF-α in 46 cases of human RCC tissues were significantly higher than that in 38 cases of corresponding autologous normal kidney tissues (EGFR.. 53. 4 % vs 21.0 %;TGF-α: 39. 1 /% vs 13. 2 %, P＜0. 05). Both EGFR and TGF-α were simultaneously overexpressed in some cases of RCC tissues. No relationship existed between EGFR or TGF-α and the RCC staging and grading. The positive rate of transcription EGFR-mRNA in 25 cases of RCC tissues was significantly higher than that in 20 cases of corresponding autologous normal kidney tissues (44 % vs 15 %, P＜0. 05). The above findings demonstrated that RCC tissues overexpressed EGFR and TGF-αand overtranscribed EGFR-mRNA. The overexpressed EGFR and TGF-α might contribute to the growth and development of RCC by taking part in the autocrine growth loop in RCC.

Objective To compare the oil yield of celery seeds and the contents of 3-n-butylphthalide and the total phthalocyanine lactones of celery seed oil extracted by different methods. Methods Three routine extraction methods involving organic solvent extraction, Soxhlet extraction, steam distillation extraction, as well as subcritical extraction method and supercritical fluid extraction method were used to extract the celery seed oil. The contents of 3-n-butylphthalide and total phthalocyanine lactones were respectively detected by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) and ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry. Results The ranges of oil yield and the contents of 3-n-butylphthalide and total phthalocyanine lactones of celery seed oil extracted by different methods were 0.30%-20.02%, 1.40%-10.13%, 4.74%-17.65%, respectively, indicating obvious differences. Conclusion With R134a and butane as the solvents, the subcritical extraction method is better than other extraction methods for the extraction of 3-n-butylphthalide. With dimethyl ether as the solvent, the subcritical extraction method is the best for the extraction of total phthalocyanine lactones.

Objective To explore the correlations of perceived social support and burnout with general well-being among caregivers in nursing homes. Methods One hundred nursing workers were selected from three nursing homes in Guangzhou. Perceived social support scale ( PSSS ) , Maslach burnout inventory ( MBI ) and general well-being schedule ( GWBS ) were used to investigate the status of their support, burnout and general well-being and analyze the correlations between them. Results The scores on perceived social support, job burnout and general well-being were (59.00 ± 9.00), (2.49 ± 0.88), (77.19 ±9 .90), respectively, all at moderate level. The scores on emotional exhaustion and depersonalization were significantly higher than the norms (both P<0.001). Job burnout together with its three dimensions was negatively correlated with general well-being (all P<0.01), while perceived social support was positively correlated with general well-being ( P < 0 . 01 ) . The exogenous family support , emotional exhaustion and personal accomplishment influenced caregiver′s general well-being (all P<0.01). Conclusions Perceived social support, job burnout and general well-being are all at moderate level in caregivers of nursing homes. The higher the perceived social support, the lower the job burnout, the higher the passion and the general well-being in care workers. The general well-being of caregivers of the nursing homes was not high. The managers should pay more attention to them and measures should be taken to promote their physical and mental health.
